Keith Ballard is a healthy scratch tonight. Ouch.That signing is looking quite awful at the moment. I have not watched him play much yet. To be honest I have not watched that much hockey, but him being a healthy scratch is embarrassing. He has zilch points and is a minus 3 that is tied with Parent for worst among the defence. 4.5 mill is a lot to pay a healthy scratch.
From the bit of hockey I have watched..Malhotra has looked good, same with Torres..Malhotra will probably break his record for points this season, I bet. He is flying out there, and is dominant on faceoffs. The second line is coming around, but lets be honest Kesler would be a fantastic third line centre and is an average second liner. His point totals are coming back down to earth from last year, like everyone expected.
Sedins are looking good again. 87-94 points is where I see them finishing this year.
I want to see Schneids in net more, against some more serious opponents. Who cares if he plays well against Carolina? He did look good though the other night against Colorado. How about putting him up against St. Louis, LA or Detroit. Maybe they think he would piss his pants, maybe he would, all I know is I want to see how he would respond to a top tier opponent.
Prior to the canucks current road trip, they have had a very easy schedule. They had Buffalo, Carolina and Chicago coming to town after playing a game the night prior. Those are some easy wins.

All for now.
